The Black-throated Chaco-Finch is a distinctive songbird native to the dry Chaco region of central South America. It is characterized by its prominent black throat, pale supercilium, and olive-brown upperparts. This species prefers thorny scrub and open woodlands.
Where to spot
Found in the dry Chaco region of central South America, including northern Argentina, Paraguay, and southern Brazil. Inhabits arid scrub, open woodlands, and thorny brushlands.
How to spot
Look for its contrasting black throat and pale supercilium. It often perches conspicuously on low branches. Listen for its distinctive, clear, whistled song, often a repeated 'swee-swee-sweet.'
When to spot
Active year-round. Best observed during early mornings or late afternoons, especially in the cooler dry season.
